Subject: [PATCH] x86: Allow platforms to force enable apic

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

Some embedded x86 platforms don't setup the APIC in the
BIOS/bootloader and would be forced to add "lapic" on the kernel
command line. That's a bit akward.

Split out the force enable code from detect_init_APIC() and allow
platform code to call it from the platform setup.
